Freedom

July 4, 2020

Like all the times I wrote before,
I come to You to write once more.

Our nation Lord, land of the free,
Has fewer now who bend a knee,

Who lift a prayer, who read your Word.
We seek your help. I pray we’re heard.

I pray that as we celebrate
We pause to thank you for this date,

Remember those who suffered pain.
I pray their work won’t be in vain.

I pray the freedoms we preserve
Are not for greed but used to serve.

Help us see other’s needs come first,
Bring out our best and not our worst.

I pray we heal, and end our fights,
Restore our hope, reset our sights.

    I pray the freedoms we preserve
    Are not for greed but used to serve. ARE WE LISTENING? THAT’S WHY WE ARE BLEST. WE ARE NOT DOING THAT AS MUCH NOW. pmd
